In our body, the Circulatory Organ System passes nutrients, gases, hormones, blood cells, etc. to and from cells in the body. the “circulatory system” is a closed system that uses a continuous series of blood vessels of different sizes to deliver blood to our body cells and return it to the heart.

In our body, the “Circulatory Organ System” transports oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, and waste products between cells and the respiratory system and carries chemical signals from the endocrine system; consists of the blood, heart, and blood vessels.

In our body the Lymphatic Organ System (Lymph System) includes a network of capillaries that transport the lymph through a series of nodes throughout the body (primarily in the neck, groin, and axillae (armpits) that collect the lymph and 3 organs, namely the tonsils, spleen, and thymus gland, which produce white blood cells (called lymphocytes), vital to the immune system.
The Lymphatic System (lymph, lymph nodes and lymph vessels) supports the “Cardiovascular System” by draining excess fluids and proteins from tissues back into the bloodstream, thereby preventing tissue swelling. The “Lymphatic System” serves as a defense system for the body, filtering out organisms that cause disease, producing white blood cells, and generating antibodies.

“Blood Pressure”

In our body, Blood Pressure is a hemodynamic process maintaining the amount of pressure that the inner walls of our blood vessels (arteries) face as the blood travels throughout the body. “Blood Pressure” is the “Force” of blood pushing against the blood vessel walls.

In our body, Blood Pressure is regulated by the sympathetic nervous system through the action of vasoactive hormones (catecholamines) such as epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine through their action on central and peripheral adrenergic and dopaminergic receptors, also affecting cardiovascular function, regulated in part by the flavoprotein catecholamine-degrading renalase. In our body, the pathway for the metabolism of these vasoactive hormone compounds involves uptake by neuronal and extraneuronal tissues and breakdown by the intracellular enzymes monoamine oxidase (MAO) A and B and catechol O methyl transferase.
